Trinity Hall, at the corner of Seventh
and Washington streets, Hoboken, has pre-
scented charming and hrilliaat appear
ance every evening since last Wednesday.
Il was on that evening that the Kirmess,
which had been awaited by the people of
Hoboken, and the younger folks especially,
opened amid such splendor and gayety
that at once stamped it with the seal OF
success It was difficult matter to de-
termine whether Trinity Hall was located
in America, Germany, Spain or Russia, for
more than dozen representative Of each
of these countries were there attired in
their respective national costumes and per-
forming dances peculiar to the several ma
tions. American Gairymaids, all pretty and
rosy-cheeked, were alfred in the finest
gauge dresses of pink, white and blue, and
each wore dainty little cap and carried
a small tin pail adorned with bright rib
bons; tall Russian youths strutted around
in their large boots. to which were at
tached diminutive bells which tiDkled
sweetly ut each stride; bright-eyed Spanish
senorltss and handsome senOrs, with cos-
tunes giittering with gilt trimmings and
bright streaming sashes, and the beauty of
the costumes of the Alsatian peasants lent
a picturcsqueness to the scene long to be
remembered. But among so may foreign
representatives there was no confusion of
tongues. They all conyersed in English,
and German lassies were escorted by senors
and American dairymaids by Russians
without TIE slightest exhibition of race
prejudice. Even the bland Cinnamon
found no difficulty in mingling with the
others, snd his smile broRdened into a grin
when ne Was permitted TO gaze into the
eyes Of q beautiful asirymaid.
Under the direction OF Prof Du Bots the
participants perform the dances of the
countries they represent, and they do it
with a graceful ease that is bewitching, and
the tiukling of bells and rattliDg Of tambo
rines heighten the gayety of the dances.
But the scene reaches its highest point of
beauty when the grand march is COM
menced, in which representatives
of all the countries participate and
which concludes with a grand
tableanx. The Japanese dance, which is
performed hY e dozen little chaps and
misses, is one Of the amusing features OF
the Kirmess. It consists chiefly in hep
ping and jumping to the tine of the music;
and to add to the amusement each little
